Brooklyn Community Market
Come along to the Brooklyn Community Market this Saturday 7 December from 12 to 4pm at the Community Centre on Harrison Street. Catch up with neighbours and friends while browsing through a variety of stalls with great ideas for Christmas. Stalls include jewellery, soy candles, arts & crafts, pottery, soaps, preserves & chutneys, vegetables, children's clothes and lots more. Buy a ticket in our Christmas Raffle with great prizes to be won. 1st prize valued at over $650. The draw happens at 3pm. There will be plenty to eat with the Hungry Giraffe food truck on site, the Brooklyn Scout Group BBQ on the deck and toasted sandwiches from the kitchen. Juice on Loose will be outside serving up coffee, juices and smoothies. For the children, a visit from Santa, face painting and a giant bouncy castle (weather permitting), plus we have live music throughout the afternoon including Christmas favourites from the Dark Chocolate Jazz Trio. Everybody welcome this Saturday!
Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? π»π¨π
In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?
What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
-
0% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
0% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)

How much does it cost to join AEA?
There are no dues or fees for joining AEA or attending AEA meetings. We are self-supporting through our own voluntary contributions. At some point during each meeting we pass the basket to help cover expenses, such as the cost of rent and literature. Members are not obliged to contribute, but we usually do so to the extent we are able.
